Irene Lyon, MSC. and nervous system expert (@irenelyon), teaches people around the world how to work with the nervous system to transform trauma, heal body and mind, and live full, creative lives. To date, her online programs have reached over 4000 people in over 60 countries. Irene has a Master’s Degree in Biomedical and Health Science and also has a knack for making complex info easy for ALL of us to understand and apply to our lives.

In this episode, we chat about:

- The difference between the central nervous system and the autonomic nervous system and what happens to our bodies when we feel fear, anxiety, or trauma

- How a succession of injuries and unexplained pain led her to begin studying the body-brain-environment connection

- How trauma can get trapped in the body during a survival response and what affect that can have on us even years later

- How to unlock and heal trauma that’s trapped within us

- How childhood adversity and how safe we feel as a child is linked to both physical + mental health later in life

- What “trauma” actually means and how microtraumas affect us all

- Neuroplasticity and how to build our nervous system regulation to heal later in life
